​With great delight, everyone here in Scoil an Linbh Íosa are in a celebratory mood as our boy’s basketball team have had the narrowest of victories today in their league semi-final and now await a final.

A new initiative introduced to our school with the start of a new academic year is 'The Daily Mile'. An activity first created in the United Kingdom, 'The Daily Mile' is used to promote health and fitness and well-being among the children. As it says on the tin, the children must complete a mile each day over the course of 10 weeks. 

Early on Saturday the 12th of January, the community of Prosperous and Scoil an Linbh Íosa along with Kathy's family and friends arrived to Naas racecourse to complete the Parkrun in her memory. Enthused school children and their parents took to the start line to give their all to remember an inspiring teacher.  

On her first anniversary, we are remembering our dear colleague and friend Kathy Casey-Byrne by partaking in Saturday's Parkrun - a free event that is open to everyone!

As our Christmas holidays have finally arrived, everyone in Scoil an Linbh Íosa has been super busy doing Christmas art, swapping presents and waiting on the anticipated visit from Santa.
